Message: <blockquote data-quote="Alessandro" data-source="post: 4803632" data-attributes="member: 83893">Setting and Story:     In the modern world of Perinia, the distant descendants of the Immortals still walk the land, forming a hidden world of magic and the supernatural within an otherwise mundane existence. Three institutions of learning have existed for over one thousand years, tasked with finding, training, and governing these ‘heroes.’     Players begin as students of the Mithos Academy located in the nation of Alsandria. They have just completed their third year of academic training in their respective gifts and will soon be placed in a four (or five) student “TC,” or Training Company. TCs are each paired with a highly-respected mentor and tasked with various assignments on behalf of both the Mithos Academy and Heroes in general. Assignments might include collecting information on or acquiring a specific artifact (through legal or illegal means), assassination, arcane research, subtly influencing the affairs of mortals, various other tasks, or special assignment.     The Mithos Academy, amongst the three schools, has a certain reputation. Although there are a few that might claim the Academy is “evil” or “wicked,” such claims are for the most part unfounded. It is, however, true that of the three institutions of supernatural learning, the Mithos Academy and its members are generally self-serving and frequently cutthroat. This is not to say that your character must necessarily be so, but the Academy excels in espionage, assassination, retrieval of magical artifacts, and magical influence and your character will have been trained in one or more of these skills for part or all of the past three years.     TCs tend to include a variety of races and classes, if possible, to expose students to the widest breadth of experience possible.     It is customary for a student to spend three years in a TC before being graduated by their mentor. It is the responsibility of the Mentor to continue the training of his or her TC or to schedule lessons with another qualified instructor.</blockquote>
